Do you have any tips about how to read players better? Or like, how to see the court ?

[@bigbrother9607]

Experience make the different

[@zo6340]

Line up with their body when they hit, watch their shoulders, hips, and sometimes hand

[@stormly9780]

it s pure instinct man

[@davedeandre7530]

OH YES, BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

[@manK2022]

1. I would recommend to specify also rules which deals with such a set. 2. It would be useful to put the another camera parallel with a net - above net and to explain a correct position of the setterś hand and also the incorrect above/over the net.

[@connorclifton1830]

Hello Coach, incredible video as always, thank you very much. Could you make a video of how to set when the pass goes very close to the net with both hands?

[@janemiller5288]

I haven't been watching your videos for too long but ive learned a lot. Could u make a video on back row jump hitting

[@maryhansen7242]

Great videos! Can you make a video that shows possible hand positions for two-handed setting when the ball is close to the net?

[@ginger_truncale]

Y’all make it look so easy

[@bobsmith6029]

Great video

[@samankollolemad3651]

Tnx coach ❤

[@Paulsicles]

I only call carry if the player absorbs the ball too much/long into the hand. Players who get calls will make contact with the fingers first, then the elbow and/or wrist will flex back with the ball in hand, and then they extend. The player should make contact with the ball as their elbow is going from flexed to extended. Also if there's backspin on the set, that's an indicator they're carrying.

[@ciancastillo3800]

Dont think to do it perfectly,the more you want it to be perfect the more mistakes.JUST FOR ME

[@hautehussey]

I think of a carry as pushing the ball in more than one direction. Ie catching it while still going forward and then pushing it backwards. Or a hitter catching in one way and throwing it down a different way. A lot of these are actually doubles. But they’re pretty lenient on these because they’re so fun.

[@rahulbalakrishnan7819]

Hey Coach, love your videos. Can you do a video showing how high players jump to spike different types of sets? Like height before and after jumps? Thanks.

[@suryanshmahajan6717]

Can you please make a descriptive video on Blocking techniques when hitter cut through the ball & avoid the Block.

[@lucaseduardocampelo5484]

thanks

[@missmaddiemakeup6577]

can you make a video explaining 5-1 and 4-2 but in play?? i need to visually see it to under stand it, and i'm trying out for a club team and i realllllly need to know how to do them

[@Jesalllll]

MissMaddieMakeup 5-1: same setter no matter if theyre in front or back row and the other 5 are hitters 4-2 two setters that alternate and whoever is in the front row is the setter other 4 are.hitters 6-2 same as 4-2 but the setter is always in back row so that there will be 3 hitters at all times

[@prisci363]

Infidel it's a fake

[@takamichisoares338]

I would love this one too, please coach! A deep insight on to those strategies would be really really useful

[@fedefrancioni]

You should make an appendix to the video and show how to fake a one-hand set and perform a feint if you read that the ball is going over. I love it but it's extremely risky!

[@BelderTheBlender]

I found this video helpful

[@sherwinmaneja3987]

ty so much

[@IAmVeKTreXOP]

Can you pls make a video about how to set a ball as Libero when you need to jump from the backpart of the playground into the attackzone

[@rjshron]

Can you make a video about setting back row attacks?

[@unclegrandpa6721]

Can you make a video on when to do the signals when your a volleyball setter

[@sharibkhan7813]

Thx sir

[@krishmagar4593]

Can you make a video on setter with small hand which is really difficult to give a perfect set to hitter.

[@ImXamic]

Can you please do a video on or link me a previous video of yours showing how to get better topspin

[@Hennarhz]

Hey coach Donny, Is there a proper way to use your feet to recover a ball that is out of reach of your arms, if so could you walk us through the steps of how to effectively using our feet when required? I know we can pancake the ball but what if the ball is travelling to fast for us to react. Thanks for the videos

[@jaikishan2648]

Please make a video on "how to do dolphin dive on an outdoor court of volleyball"

Any tips on how to get past a block when spiking? Or How to improve spiking strength?

[@JasonPainJames]

Raymond Camacho he's done those. look on the channel first before asking lol

[@giangianni503]

7:14 omg how old the 79 (red shirt) is? I'm 46, I played when I was 17/18. Now my 12yo daughter plays with an U14 team, we play every weekend. I thought i was too old to start playing again, but maybe i was wrong :D He's so inspiring!

[@shawnhau7067]

How to aim when spiking

[@eriye92]

Wouldn't a lot of these be considered a double contact? I know spin isn't the only determining factor but most refs I know would call these in league play. Is it just different rules in America?

[@user-kn3hc3rt5r]

Do you have any tips of doing a good block ?

[@anthonygiron4692]

Can you do a trick plays video in other words how to fool the blockers to have a open hitter. Thank you!

[@fictionalortrue9898]

You should do a video about a perfect set.

[@whatsupitskj1200]

any tips for spike decoy ? me and my friends are tryin to do it :)

[@fillipzjoe]

Can you do how to correctly backrow hit

[@9y2bgy]

So does this mean the ball can spin quite a bit and not be called double hit? Maybe it's a lift (or illegal hit)?

[@IAmVeKTreXOP]

Can you make a video about how train with a partner and how to set up somehow a pairing between your partner and you for a perfect play-together pls ^^

[@thatmidkid.1631]

Can you do 2 finger bump with a on hand set?

[@alephan08]

hey coach, opinions on using the finger gun to set? friends talk about it but dont know how to do it well or when i'd use it over the hand positions in this video

[@DavidKim-fr7fx]

Can you make one about how to not net when I hit or how to not go past the line when I hit??

[@yayicorrosivocapirot]

what way, destroy the ball or pass the ball? if u want to destroy u should jump higher than the net and coordinate your feet and arms. else you should make the ball rotate and focus a target.

[@May-so3kn]

Elevate Yourself can you show how to fake spike then set

[@KevinLi-wx1kq]

I assume one-hand set with a Palm (whole hand contacting the ball) is considered a 'carry' or 'lift', but sometimes the fingers not strong enough to set further, the what we should do?

[@stanseventeen821]

Dear Coach Donny, how do you do guess block?

[@xheksjanokalari9748]

hi coach how many times a week should we train to increase our vertical

[@bubbleboy1320]

@@komronniyozov1733 sorry i ain't coach but probably right side hitter, either that or setter

[@hastethethird5956]

do you recommend doing a time lag spike?

What about how to backcourt hit?👍

[@Life_of_Cline]

Please make a video that talk about different play

Can we get a video of set names/calls and hand signs please? I know a few but theres so many i hear that I don't know. Black, 32, y etc...

[@erwinsabelino2336]

how can I improve setting?

[@kevint4953]

Hey Donny, as a passionate amateur since two years I still haven't figured out how to hit the ball properly with my hand. Should I put tension in my hand and fingers or not, should I hit the ball with (mainly) the thenar or all of my hand? Should I spread my fingers? And what about my thumb? There are guys that make a fist!? And how can I exercise velocity and precision? Maybe this is a topic for a beginner's guide? Aside I really appreciate your excellent work! Greetings from Germany :)

[@husseinbadran7851]

Kevin Till yes, i'd like to know as well!

[@florianerdmann9488]

Kevin Till Handfläche so groß wie möglich -> Finger gespreizt und angespannt Handgelenk locker, so dass du es nach unten klappen kannst, wenn du den Ball triffst, damit er nach unten fliegt. Für den Aufschlag gilt das natürlich nicht:D Das mit der Faust ist eine unnütze Masche die leider so einige haben.

[@kevint4953]

Florian, danke für den Tipp! Ich habe wesentlich bessere Leute gefragt, wie man den Ball treffen sollte, aber da gehen die Meinungen auch sehr weit auseinander. Die einen sagten etwas ähnliches wie du, andere wieder etwas anderes...

[@florianerdmann9488]

Kevin Till Sicherlich kann man das so oder so sehen, wenn man sich die Profis anschaut, denke ich, dass die beschriebene Vorgehensweise von vielen als nützlich angesehen wird. was wurde dir denn so gesagt?

[@brynmcdougald2418]

Always use a fist, that’s how you get bounces

[@MrEricster1]

Coach Donny, I don't actually know how see what you're doing with your hands. could you tell us more about that ?

[@shahfaheem4309]

Can we set ball with one hand without jump......

[@brentcarloadan1744]

How to read the blocks coach donny?

[@JasonPainJames]

hey there Donny our winter league started yesterday and we won our three games pretty handily but I was wondering if you have any ideas on maximizing the potential of a four player coed team. Whether it be a specific formation like a diamond or a square, or lining people up in a certain way, or giving specific jobs to each player?

[@JasonPainJames]

Elevate Yourself Alright thanks for the incite. We usually do the one blocker three diggers strategy, just because it seems easier to do. my friend Sara is 6ft and I'm 6'2. while my friends Jake and Ashley are both under 5'7. I'm sure you could figure out who attacks and who sets on our team fairly easily ha. The biggest thing we've struggled with so far are teams who tend to push deep to the corners or tip on us. We haven't lost a match but we have dropped a set and it was primarily because of tips and pushes. I probably spend more time thinking about how to improve myself and our team more than anyone in our league so I truly appreciate you getting back to me.

[@sherry8500]

Sir, can you make a video on How to fake spike?

[@roberto948]

he did it already

[@liesandvideotape]

Do you have a tutorial on pinch setting? I have seen teammates doing it but I can't find anything on it

[@liesandvideotape]

oh it's the finger-gun set

[@saivivek3037]

After continues spiking I get severe forearm pain how to reduce it

[@hannec3436]

Everytime i do this the referee tells me i "carry" the ball or touch it twice.. eventhough the set was correct. How do i know if he is right?

[@marikothecheetah9342]

physics, physics, physics. Propelling the ball with a proper transmission of energy from the hand to the ball, using your bones as the axis. *smiles cheerfully*

[@gomeesh37]

Any tips on how to position yourself on the backline when the opponents are spiking? (tips on defense in general)

Are there any excerise's that I can do to jump higher? I'm 5'6 and I can't really spike or do a jump serve effectively.

[@slimehound1934]

mini fuzz I feel your pain. I'm 5'6 too and it isn't exactly ideal for this sport xD

[@Blowurmind63]

Look up jump training on Coach Donny's channel (Elevate Yourself).

[@neiljersonabanilla6207]

increase your vertical jump dont get incourage

[@a.b5263]

mini fuzz hi im 5’1 14yrs old I can sometimes jump serve and can rarely spike

[@Pezinteresante]

I’m 5’5 and I have the highest vertical on my team, do a LOT of leg strength exercises. Jump squats, jump roping everyday, one legged squats, they help a lot. Also swing ur arms

[@franciskylebulabon1908]

Hey coach donny, im 14 years old and i play volleyball a lot, is it normal if i spike the ball it slips? And how to avoid that, i just started playing and I can't do a clean spike :(

[@raihanah5618]

I tried doing this & I bent my thumb all the way back. It hurt so bad.

[@kennyvu6712]

do you have any tips on setting without spin?

[@MrOpetr]

Well at least for me what worked the best was mastering the technique, #1 you want to have your thumbs facing you,all-through the motion of a set, dont throw them out, lock them in. #2 Focus on setting more with your wrists rather than with your fingers. #3 Also keep your fingers hard when setting in motion or while chasing a difficult ball. #4 You also want to keep your elbows shoulder wide, tuck them in#5 Raise hands above your forehead. So you can see the player youŗe passing. # And last, practice a lot. And by a lot i mean a lot. Go against the wall and master your craft daily, consistency is the key. Peace !

[@kennyvu6712]

thank you

I would like to know as well, I am a setter and would like my libero to set the ball for me when I get first contact

[@xaviernguyen8339]

Thank you coach donny

[@blox1154]

Is its fault when the ball is spinn?

[@hautehussey]

Depends on the hand motion. A lot of the spinning ones in this video are doubles (should be called). If the point of contact on the ball is small then it could be spinning just because of an off center contact.

[@slayrmikegaming2106]

how tall are u

[@May-so3kn]

slayrmike gaming 7;9

[@ginger_truncale]

Okay what

[@soleschan2679]

but wouldnt that be a carry ? if u use your finger prints

[@MrOpetr]

It is a carry only when performing your wrist bends backwards for power. What could also occure is a double-touch when you fail to contact the ball simultaneusly.

[@May-so3kn]

Soles Chan no

[@user-ok3ej7qq6x]

god

[@Brothatisjake]

Will refs call a double if you do a one handed set?

[@danielkwan1757]

very hard to touch the ball twice with one hand LOL but they may call you on a lift, just try to reduce the time you are in contact with the ball

[@Brothatisjake]

Daniel Kwan I thought they would call a double because it would be too much spin on the ball but thanks for the clearing

[@andrewlee2053]

Brothatisjake a double isn't called because of the spin.. A double is a double touch

[@danielkwan1757]

refs usually call a double because there is a high correlation between a double contact and how much spin a ball has

[@andrewlee2053]

Daniel Kwan exactly but one hand sets will be called for a lift rather than a double

[@kyo8390]

lol, the only reason i am watching this is because my left hand is in a cast

[@barryking578]

constant argument between ump and player .....legit set or lift/push/carry

Problem with a few of these are they’re doubles.
